Immune regulations play important roles in the process of DO like other bone regeneration mechanisms. Compared with others, the immune regulation processes of DO have their distinct features. In this review, we summarized the immune-related events including changes in and effects of immune cells, immune-related cytokines, and signaling pathways at different periods in the process of DO. We aim to elucidated our understanding and unknowns about the immunomodulatory role of DO. The goal of this is to use the known knowledge to further modify existing methods of DO, and to develop novel DO strategies in our unknown areas through more detailed studies of the work we have done.展开更多

Consistently, to resolve the issues on rapid degradation, more studies are dedicated to the researches on the composition design, preparation and processing, surface modification, the degradation modes of Mg alloys. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which Mg alloys promote bone healing remain elusive. This review gives an account of specific mechanisms on Mg alloys promoting bone healing from four aspects, immunomodulatory, angiogenesis, osteogenesis and regulation of osteoclast function. We highlight the regulation of Mg alloys on the functional status and interactions of numerous cells that are involved in bone healing, including immune cells, osteogenicrelated cells, osteoclasts, endothelial cells(ECs), nerve cells, etc., and summarize the signaling pathways involved, with the aim to provide the basis and support on future investigation on mechanisms on Mg alloys driving bone regeneration. More importantly, it provides a rationale and a general new basis for the application of Mg alloys in orthopedic fields.展开更多

The intrinsic fluorescence of HSA was quenched through the combination of static and dynamic quenching mechanism. DeEA cannot be stored and carried by HSA in the body at higher temperature. The hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic force and van der Waals force were major acting forces. The site II was the major binding site. The energy transfer could occur with high probability and the binding distance was 3.29 nm. The binding process slightly changed the conformation and microenvironment of HSA. The DeEA molecule entered the hydrophobic cleft of HSA and formed the hydrogen bonding with Glu-492 and Lys-545.展开更多
